意味
To experience a negative consequence that prevents repeating a mistake.
文化的背景
In Iranian parenting, this phrase is often used to teach children about consequences. It's not a threat of physical punishment, but a way to emphasize the 'scar' of a mistake. Among traditional merchants, 'burning the hand' is a serious matter of reputation. If a merchant says this about a partner, it means the business relationship is permanently severed. The concept of 'Dagh' (brand/mark) appears in classical poetry as a symbol of love's pain or the mark of slavery, but in this idiom, it's purely about the 'mark of experience.' On Iranian Twitter/X, you'll often see people use this idiom when complaining about tech products, apps, or government services that failed them.
Use it for emphasis
When you want to show you are 100% serious about not repeating a mistake, use this instead of just saying 'I won't do it.'
Don't forget the suffix
Always say 'dast-am', 'dast-at', etc. Just saying 'posht-e dast' sounds like a dictionary entry, not a person speaking.

It's not aggressive
Even though it sounds violent (burning), it's actually a sign of self-reflection and growth.

よくある質問
10 問Yes, absolutely. It's a staple of Persian conversation across all ages.
You can, but it might sound a bit sarcastic or dramatic. Best for significant lessons.
There isn't a direct single idiom, but you could say 'درس نگرفتن' (not taking a lesson).
No, it's a secular, cultural idiom.
Yes, if you're explaining a past mistake and how you've grown from it. It shows humility.
Both are used, but 'dagh kardan' is much more common for this specific idiom.
Say: 'Posht-e dastash ra dagh kard.'
Sometimes people just say 'Dagh kardam' while pointing to their hand.
Yes, you can say 'He should burn his hand' (Bayad posht-e dastash ra dagh konad).
It's neutral to informal. In a very formal speech, you'd use 'Ebrat gereftan'.
